Make a Difference for Wildlife with Jagger’s Surveys
The Hispaniolan solenodon (Solenodon paradoxus) is one of the most intriguing mammals in the world. Found only on the Caribbean island of Hispaniola, this nocturnal creature has captured the curiosity of scientists and animal lovers alike. Unfortunately, habitat loss and introduced predators threaten its survival. At Jagger, we believe that everyone can make a positive impact. By taking surveys on our platform, you not only earn rewards but also contribute to reforestation projects that help endangered species like the solenodon.
Understanding the Hispaniolan Solenodon
The Life and Personality of the Solenodon
The Hispaniolan solenodon, with its elongated snout and distinctive gait, is a throwback to prehistoric times. As one of the few venomous mammals, it uses specialized grooves in its teeth to inject venom into its prey. Solenodons are shy and elusive, typically emerging at night to forage for insects, fruits, and small animals. Despite their somewhat awkward appearance, these mammals play a vital role in controlling pest populations in their ecosystems.
Imagine this: while you are taking a Jagger survey, a solenodon might be out there helping maintain ecological balance—both working towards a healthier planet in your own way.
Habitat and Challenges
Native to the forests and brushlands of Hispaniola, the solenodon thrives in dense vegetation, where it can dig and burrow. Unfortunately, human activities like logging, agriculture, and urbanization have drastically reduced its habitat. To make matters worse, introduced predators like feral cats and mongooses have added pressure to the species, pushing it to the brink of extinction.
